Pairing Wine With Halloween: A Guide to NoVA Halloween Winery Bashes

Posted byCarten Cordell / Wednesday, October 24th, 2012

Virginia Wine Month is about to go out with a bang—with a head-on, crash collision with Halloween! Celebrate the final days of October, autumn, Virginia Wine Month and Halloween at some of your favorite local wineries. Winemakers are creative individuals; their ideas for Halloween bashes go far beyond your typical costume party.

Twisted Vines Halloween Masquerade Party at The Winery at Bull Run

When’s the last time your Halloween party had dancing AND dueling? Or a live Civil War re-enactment? Head out to The Winery at Bull Run (in costume) and see its neighbor—the Manassas Battlefield—come to life. The event will also coincide with the introduction of the winery’s newest tasty beverage.

The owners of Three Fox Vineyards want you to dress up for their annual Halloween bash. They’ll even bribe you: discounted wine. If the party lasts all night, you’re welcome to stay on for the Haunted Hallowine 5k the next morning.

Have you ever wondered what the world would look like after the zombie apocolypse? Little Washington Winery has. It involves free wine. Survive their 3k zombie run without getting infected and there’s free tasting for you at the finish line.

It’s time to start thinking ahead. You’re about to have a half-year’s supply of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers. What wines are you going to pair them with? The answer is at Paradise Springs Winery.

Why not spice up trick-or-treating this year and come home with a new fury friend? Doodledawgs will be at Casanel Vineyards to introduce you to your new family member (and help you plan his Halloween cosutme for next year).
